About the album

Maestro Zone is the third studio album by Canadian rapper Maestro Fresh Wes, released April 21, 1992 on Polydor/PolyGram as a re-packaged version of The Black Tie Affair with four new songs. Just before its release, he moved to Brooklyn, New York, in an attempt to expand his fanbase in the US. A fascinating chapter for anyone tracing the roots of rap north of the border.

Seller's Notes: Original USA Press, Promo / DJ Copy

Collector Notes: The man who made Canada take its own rap seriously — Maestro Fresh-Wes went platinum up north with "Let Your Backbone Slide" before this, and Maestro Zone is the harder, jazz-leaning record that followed. "Ebony Mozart," "On The Jazz Tip," "Conductin' Thangs." Notice the promo punch hole on the barcode! Booklet shows a light mark/dent on the middle right side, but nothing major.
